BLIND S.T.A.L.K.E.R. #1
Added 2023-06-25 15:24:15 +0000 UTCIt's time.
A while back when I started doing Thief 2 as a series, I was planning something else. I wanted to get through Thief 2 because it is wonderful, classic, and one of the finest PC games ever made, with a rich tapestry of a story and a villain that sounds ridiculous.
However, at that time, I decided that as soon as Thief 2 was done, there was another game, one that you've all been asking for forever, and one that I didn't have any experience with. The king of slavjank as I've been told. Things don't get too janky this time around but I suspect we've only seen the beginning. Come, kids, and join me on a trip through The Zone. It's going to be bloody.

2023-07-03 01:35:57 +0000 UTCim not sure if you know this but you can right click weapons and unload them for more ammo.

2023-06-27 04:20:37 +0000 UTCforgot to add. You can change weapon firing from automatic to single with the 0 key on most weapons.

2023-06-26 21:04:28 +0000 UTCthere are keybinds for bandage and medkit. I didn't see you crouching or low crouching, it'll help a lot with accuracy for longer rifle shots. good luck!
Goldfish
2023-06-26 19:35:47 +0000 UTCI never thought this day would come. One of my favorite game series! After ShoC, the other games are more balanced mechanic-wise. still some good ol' jank.
Goldfish
2023-06-26 18:59:12 +0000 UTCThis is a great video. Several laugh-out-loud moments. Really excited to see the rest of the series.
Korcks
2023-06-26 12:32:30 +0000 UTCYep. Although the menus were giving me trouble clicking on “unload” or “drop”
Civvie
2023-06-26 11:31:36 +0000 UTCCan someone please tell me why you’re all obsessed with the lean? I have footage with leaning that I didn’t use. Should I go back and put it in so I don’t hear about leaning for the rest of my life? It’s going to be Alpha Prime all over again with “the game is balanced for lean”
Civvie
2023-06-26 11:29:27 +0000 UTCOh man I can't wait for this! Btw did you know you can actually unload guns you find. Its a nifty little way to get ammo.
Erik Olsson (TerrorBlades)
2023-06-26 11:07:40 +0000 UTCWhy no lean?

2023-06-26 09:54:00 +0000 UTCoh Civvie you spoil us. This is a treat!

2023-06-26 01:02:19 +0000 UTCthat bit at the end where you run across that guy that pulls your camera out of your body and down to look at him - really REALLY freaked me out the first time playing through when I didn't know what to expect. what the FUCK is happening??

2023-06-25 21:00:20 +0000 UTCHo yeah! I absolutely love S.T.A.L.K.E.R, can't wait to watch this
Scott LaPointe
2023-06-25 20:42:08 +0000 UTCOoooh I played this ages ago but every area you show I can still feel in my bones, this game hit me hard back then. Also WTF I never found a useful shotgun. I remember finding out way too late that you can repair/improve guns by dragging another one on top of it to use as parts, not sure if that is still in there or being explained but I think a part of the general confusion about difficulty is that every gun you find is basically junk until it consumes 2-3 of its brothers.
Martin Tepper
2023-06-25 20:27:35 +0000 UTCI strongly considered it and then chose not to.

punktum
2023-06-25 20:15:17 +0000 UTCCertainly wasn't expecting STALKER, but fucking sick! You tend to play some of my favorite series, and this is one of em'. Video was a absolute joy, looking forward to seeing how you slaughter the military base.
Jimson Datura
2023-06-25 20:01:01 +0000 UTCI think it was luck. I went over that footage again and saw that there were four guys surrounding him. I opened fire, killed one, and the other three went to take cover behind a tank instead of shooting the loner first.
Civvie
2023-06-25 19:37:50 +0000 UTCOne of the developers died fighting in Ukraine last year.
Silentphil9
2023-06-25 19:36:34 +0000 UTCInteresting, you managed to save a ganged loner at the entrance of garbage at your first playthrough. Bit sad you cut that out: its not easy and i wondered how youll do it.
Paskudne
2023-06-25 19:33:38 +0000 UTCHi Civvie, I've been watching you for years. Loving the contents. I just wanted to add, I don't know if anyone else has said, but also I can't remember if there is one in Stalker 1, but if you press "L" you will use a flashlight. Also, I hope in the future, you play No One Lives Forever. I love that game so freaking much. Perhaps, when you do, play the ps2 version and compare them? But thanks anyway! :)

2023-06-25 19:25:07 +0000 UTCJust woke up to this notification, what a time to be alive. Thanks Civvie!
Bright Anderson
2023-06-25 18:24:03 +0000 UTCAll I know about Stalker is that it's a classic game a lot of people like, and a Ukrainian soldier is a boss with the weapons he has to use to fight against Russia because he learned it all from Stalker.
TonySki
2023-06-25 18:14:41 +0000 UTCI'm going to boot it up and check. I assumed I had to pick one up.
Civvie
2023-06-25 18:06:14 +0000 UTCYe, no problem. I'll have it done for the next video.
Civvie
2023-06-25 18:05:58 +0000 UTChey civvie you mind switching my name in the credits to Boz E-Claire and make the colour hot pink please? times have changed yknow
Claire Cable
2023-06-25 18:02:05 +0000 UTCI'll have to boot up stalker to double check, but I'm pretty sure you have a headlamp you can turn on with L Edit: Yup, that should help in some of the later parts.

JOE MOTHERFUCKING TREEFELNER
2023-06-25 16:30:37 +0000 UTCLove a good bout of shotgun-fueled hubris that gets immediately turned on its head. Also, this was so much more rough than I expected, given how much a friend of mine has talked it up over the years, damn.
